Paintball games
There are hundreds of ways to play the game of Paintball. I will give examples of three ways that are commonly used at our field.
The Center Flag Game
Two teams of equal size and experience are placed in starting stations. A single flag is placed in a center flag station at equal distance and difficulty from both start stations. It is then the object of each team to get the flag to the other teams start station. If the flag carrier is marked, then the flag is "live" and is hung in the nearest tree. This game is usually 15 minutes long.
The Two Flag Game
Two teams of equal size and experience are placed in starting stations. A flag is placed in each starting station with the teams. It is then the object of each team to get the other team's flag back to their original starting station. If the flag carrier is marked, then the flag is "dead" and is returned to the start station it was removed from. This game is usually 20 minutes long.
The Elimination Game
Two teams of equal size and experience are placed in starting stations. No flags are used. It is the object of each team to eliminate more players off of the other team before the time runs out. This game is usually 20 minutes long.
